> Transitive dependencies of optional dependencies are included in WEB-INF/lib

> Key: MWAR-111
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-111
> Project: Maven WAR Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.2
> Environment: Maven 2.0.7, JDK 1.6.0_01-b06, JavaEE 5

> I have an EAR project (TestEAR) which contains two modules:
> 1. A JAR module (TestJAR) which has one dependency: commons-lang 2.3
> 2. A WAR module (TestWAR) which uses [these
> instructions|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/examples/war-manifest-guide.html]
> to declare a dependency on TestJAR so that TestJAR is included in TestWAR's
> manifest classpath, but not copied into WEB-INF/lib (i.e. declares the
> dependency optional).
> This works fine for TestJAR itself, but its transitive dependency
> (commons-lang 2.3) is still copied into WEB-INF/lib. I don't believe this is
> the correct behavior since all dependencies of a JAR packaged in the EAR must
> also be packaged in the EAR. So, all a WAR should have to do is put the
> transitive dependencies in its manifest classpath to inherit them. Basically:
> in a WAR, transitive dependencies of "optional" dependencies should inherit
> the "optional" flag.
> I have included a simple test project as an example. Unzip, cd TestProject,
> and mvn install. Look in TestEAR's target dir and you will see that
> commons-lang is included in the EAR. Then look in TestWAR's target dir and
> you will see that commons-lang is also included in both the manifest
> classpath and the WEB-INF/lib dir.
